The millennial life is fast. Made up of people born between the years 1980-1995, this generation (also referred to as “Gen Y”) is currently the largest generation in history. It is self-confident, technologically sound, aware, educated, and socially connected. However, never has a generation bewildered marketers and realtors with their habits.

What’s surprising, however, is that for a generation that has been deemed “entitled” constantly, millennials are astonishingly accommodative. They are ready to make sacrifices wherever necessary, as long as they have their convenience.

That said, how do the millennials prefer to live? What do they want in their home? How and where does the difference from Gen X strike? Gone are the days of expansive backyards, undulating lawns and gardens, and rustic features. It’s really simple – millennials want an easy blend of the following:

Affordability

Millennials save up for experiences, not assets. They’d rather spend money on travels than on a property or an automobile. So, one might wonder, how do you expect them to afford a home? That’s where the affordability factor comes in. Millennials are happy with mid-segment floor plans, as long as the property packs a bunch of modern features. This brings us to the next point.Smart, contemporary features
Dedicated corners for “home offices”, large kitchens and hangout areas, fast internet services, remote security systems, and home automation are some of the many features that millennials prefer in their homes. So much so, that these features are often the deciding factors during assessment.

Tactical location

A home that’s closer to their workplace, and is replete with all conveniences of daily life, saves millennials ample time and gas. They want homes that are connected to the city, yet not within it. However, shopping malls, convenience stores, entertainment avenues, and an efficient road network tops their list of must-haves.

The millennial generation is smart enough to do their research, which is why, they take their time to zero in on a property that meets all their requirements. The real estate market is their new playground, and they’re no longer afraid to give it a go. After all, you can’t replace the feeling of owning a home, can you?

In a bid to address the glaring shortage of nearly 20 million housing units needed by the rural and urban poor in the country, the government’s revolutionary Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana (PMAY) was launched in the year 2015.

The scheme originally was meant to cover people in the economically weaker sections and low income groups, but now covers the mid-income group (MIG) as well.

In PMAY, the government will provide an interest subsidy ranging 3% to 6.5% on housing on loans ranging between Rs.6 lac to Rs.12 lac to people for a tenure of 20 years under credit link subsidy scheme (CLSS).

The highlight for anyone who dreams of owning a house, the PMAY reduces the cost of acquiring a home by upto Rs.2.3 lac.

The Eligibility Criteria

Any individual who wants to avail the scheme needs to meet the criteria set by the PMAY committee, and fall under one of the following groups –

1) Economically Weaker Section (EWS)

2) Low Income Group (LIG)

3) Middle Income Group 1 (MIG 1)

4) Middle Income Group 2 (MIG 2)

Every section has a different set of eligibility criteria to meet, details are as follows:

Additionally, to avail a subsidised loan here’s a list of criteria that an applicant must meet:

In order to avail benefits under this scheme, there should be no homes registered under the names of the applicant or any other family members.

The applicant of this special housing loan scheme must not avail any benefits of any other housing schemes offered by the government of India.

In case of husband and wife, wife needs to be co-owner in the house.

In case if senior citizen is present in the family then he/she should be one of the co-owner in the house.

PMAY: Benefits to the Customer

Unmarried earning child living with parents in a pucca house can also avail scheme

Person who has sold his house and currently does not own any properties can also avail the scheme

Even if project is not a PMAY scheme customers can avail scheme if they fall under the 4 categories

Depending upon the loan amount if customer has taken PMAY scheme his loan amount of PMAY limit will be charged on a subsidised rate of interest and rest of the loan amount will charged at actual rate of interest .

The PMAY scheme has already helped thousands of individuals buy a home. With an aim to provide ‘’Housing for all’’, this initiative is a strategic step towards the development of India as a force to reckon with.

Smart Location

Also, if you pick a location with lower real estate prices but having a good appreciation rate & great prospects for the future, then you’re making the smart choice!

Smart Amenities

Fourth: Fun & recreation

You home must help you relax as well right? Amenities like sports facilities, jogging tracks, gymnasiums, parks are always a good thing to have in a development.

Many developments have rooftop amenities! This way you can relax while enjoying the beautiful view of the cityscape. In fact, a development with rooftop amenities is an example of effective space management.

Smart Design

Investing in real estate is always a big decision! A large amount of money is involved, there are many players in the market & most importantly, there are different types of properties as well! You may be deciding between investing in different types of property, so here we’re going to outline the many benefits of investing in plots.

To find the perfect plot to invest in, one must know well about the location, the legalities and the rate. There are also quite a few benefits that one can derive from plot investments. Here’s a closer look at them:

Incredible Appreciation:

Land is a limited asset, and the demand for it will always be high, no matter what happens. This is one of the main reasons why land prices go up every year! A plot is land in its purest form, and if you happen to own a plot in an area rife with industrial or residential activity, then you will get exponential returns.

Easier Possession:

Possession of plots is bound by fewer constraints. For example, to get the possession of your apartment, you’ll have to wait for the construction to get over. In comparison, getting possession of a plot feels like a breeze.

Almost zero depreciation:

What many people fail to account for during the valuation of their properties are the depreciation costs of the building and related construction. Since there’s no construction in case of plots, you can expect no risk of depreciation.

Minimum Maintenance:

Just like the case for depreciation: since there’s no construction, there is barely any maintenance! Hence the upkeep is quite low.

This is why investing in the right plot is always a good idea! So if you’re looking for the right property investment, check out Vaarsa Highlands by B.U. Bhandari Landmarks in Shirwal – a rapidly developing industrial zone!

They call Pune the pensioners’ paradise; the Oxford of the East, a city that loves its naps & its weather. Like a doting parent, this city has a habit of spoiling you, and Punekars will agree. In spite of its rising skyline & diverse multicultural population, Pune fiercely safeguards its rich history, culture & language. Just one of the reasons why Punekars have a notoriously powerful command over their Marathi!

Pune is truly cosmopolitan - an economic, cultural & lifestyle hub. It is peaceful yet industrious; it is clean yet colourful. Several new neighbourhoods have grown and flourished in Pune thanks to a bustling IT sector & educational opportunities, but the city-centre is still the most-preferred residential address thanks to its old-world charm.

If you’re a homebuyer, looking for a new place in Pune, here’s why the Heart of Pune is the perfect place for you & your loved ones:

1. Time moves slowly here

As mentioned before, the centre of Pune is a separate universe, with its own sense of time, pace & inhabitants. The leafy, canopy-laden areas of Erandwane, Fergusson College Road, Deccan Gymkhana draw out a feeling of belongingness.

2. It’s got everything you need!

Ask any Punekar; the city centre has everything you need! Some of the best hospitals in the country, some of the most renowned educational institutes, gourmet restaurants and much more! Coupled with well-laid out arterial roads and sound civic amenities, it is a complete residential destination.

3. Getting anywhere from here is easy

Some of the most important roads & avenues of Pune branch out from the city centre. The area is well connected to all the other important destinations of the city.

4. It has incredible aspirational value!

Where we stay or where we belong, or in this case – our address, can be the source of our pride. The city-centre is without a doubt THE place to live in Pune!

5. A dream location to start a family

The heart of Pune is the cleanest, safest and also one of its most family-friendly locations! It is a world of convenience & comfort and starting a family here is an amazing privilege.
